Pros

You get a lot of benefits working at such a large company like IBM. The housing stipend was on point, and Watson in general is an incredibly cool/unique product.

Plus, they fly you out to one of the main IBM campuses (if you're a Watson intern) for the finale event! Definitely learned a lot during this entire experience.

Cons

Because it's so large and interns are split up into many different teams, I feel like every intern has a very different experience that can be better or worse depending on where you are. I felt kind of isolated from other interns, although it seemed some areas were better connected than others. The corporate climate also means that you're not quite sure if you'll make an impact.
